Drying up question!!!

Casi
How long did it take you to dry up? I've been trying to do it slowly. First day I pumped 5 min on each side, every 2-3 hours, 2nd day, 5 minutes on each side every 4-5 hours, day 3-7, just to relieve pressure. Yesterday was the 4th day and first day I've not pumped at all. I'm in so much pain, just taking Motrin. Should I just continue not pumping at all, I'm afraid if I relieve any pressure at all, it'll take longer.
